News: STREAM IRON REAGAN’S 'CROSSOVER MINISTRY' LP IN ITS ENTIRETY

In the wake of one of the most controversial presidential elections in American history, Iron Reagan’s new album Crossover Ministry couldn’t have come at a better time.  Due out this Friday fromRelapse Records, Crossover Ministry is comprised of 18 tracks in just thirty minutes. Mixed by Kurt Ballou and recorded by Iron Reagan guitarist Phil “Landphil” Hall, the album is a further continuation of the band’s punchy, thrashy gallops and unique hardcore punk attitude.  Hear their vicious sermon at a circle pit near you in February and March (dates below) and stream Crossover Ministry in full today exclusively on Noisey.

 

Iron Reagan are no strangers to the fine art of crossover thrash. Comprised of veterans Tony Foresta, Phil Hall, Mark Bronzino, Rob Skotis, and Ryan Parrish, between them they fill, or have filled the ranks of Municipal Waste, Cannabis Corpse, Mammoth Grinder, Darkest Hour and numerous other bands. Formed in 2012, the punk-metal quintet quickly released a demo EP followed by their debut full-length, Worse Than Dead via A389 Recordings, and splits with both Exhumed and Toxic Shock. The gang then signed to Relapse Records and released their self-produced sophomore full-length The Tyranny of Will, mixed by Kurt Ballou (Converge) in 2014. 

 

Since 2014, Iron Reagan have toured the world almost non-stop, with high-caliber acts in the punk, hardcore and metal worlds such as Poison Idea, Napalm Death, Voivod, Skeletonwitch, The Black Dahlia Murder, GWAR, Seven Seconds, Eyehategod, etc. including appearances at Hellfest, Full Terror Assault, Brutal Assault, This is Hardcore, Party San Open Air, and numerous others.  Now in February and March 2017, Iron Reagan will tour North America with Power Trip - check out the tour dates below and look for Crossover Ministry to be available February 3rd.  Also be sure to check out the music video for “Bleed the Fifth,” which follows the strung-out antics of two rogue cops played by the stars of Comedy Central’s new show Delco Proper, here.
